    'I've Ordered a Nexus 5' Thread! (Order & Shipping Discussion)

    Wow, WTF. I ordered the a white 32GB on Thursday around 3 PM EST and my order is still in pending status. I'm in MI as well. Doesn't seem to be any logic as to the sequence they are shipping orders...they sure aren't processing them in the order they arrive.

    Best app for finding/locking lost or stolen phone?

    I've been using Avast since they purchased Theft Aware. Has options for root users and everything can be controlled via SMS (lock, locate, wipe, etc). Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk

    Debating whether to exchange my Galaxy Nexus or not ...

    Just to comment on battery life, ever since I flashed the EK06 radio I've been getting MUCH better battery life. For example, right now i'm at 45% with a little over 10 hours use. On the older radio it would be dead by now. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk

    erratic wake screen won't stay on after root?

    I had this exact same problem while I was testing Light Flow but I'm not %100 sure that was the cause. It took me several battery pulls and attempts to get past my lock screen. I then uninstalled Light Flow and the problem went away. Not sure if it was a fluke or some odd thing with Light Flow.

    Anti-virus software and rooting question

    I use Avast who recently purchased Theft Aware (which I used before). I think it's one of the best options for rooted phones. I mainly use it for its anti-theft features.

    Widgetsoid2.x or SwitchPro?

    I'm using ZDbox but I'm sure there are many options out there.

    Automatically Lock not working correctly, anyone suggestions??

    I've noticed this as well. It locks as soon as you hit the power button but if you let the screen time out, it doesn't lock (until ten minutes passes). I don't know this is by design or not but it's annoying. This feature works correctly in CM7 so I'm sure it will in CM9.

    Do NOT use Verizon screen protectors!

    They gave me the anti-glare ones probably because I didn't know any better. I put one on and I don't think I left it on for more than a minute. Those are absolute garbage, what a waste of money.

    Stuck on Google screen bootloop

    Worked! Thank you! Just to add, the first time I tried it still boot looped. So I went back into the bootloader, ran fastboot oem unlock, re-ran recovery and then it booted ok.

    Stuck on Google screen bootloop

    I'm having the exact same problem. I can get into the stock recovery via voldown+power but not sure what I can do from there.

    Thunderbolt: Apps that are safe to remove once rooted (and how to put them back!)

    Seems that if you remove HtcStreamPlayer.apk you will no longer be able to stream video from sites such as ESPN.
